Teaching Interactionist Gender Theory through Speed Dating - So get to meet nice and interesting singles.

It was only a matter of time, Dear Reader, before I would eventually try this method of dating. A few years ago my singular first hand observation of it was by pure happenstance, when I mistakenly stumbled into the private back room of a lounge where a sleek collection of bespectacled Asians were gently talking at candlelit tables and furiously writing in little cards. It looked cool but you could feel the pent up anticipation in the room. Obviously this email had been tailored just for me! The overall marketing was very good. They had a theme, tied to the weather, which gave you some indication of what to wear and which I always find very helpful. The day of, they sent another themed email reminding you of the event with tips and tricks on how to be a good date. I liked a lot of what they wrote. They say that attaching a picture to your work resume is mandatory in South Korea and Linked-In is a digital version of this very thing. I don't think a vision-based dating system should be encouraged and it sets the wrong tone. As you may remember, Dear Reader, I believe that smart is overrated and beauty is a curse. I don't need validation from superficial strangers and if you are looking for a way to quickly piss me off, bitch, you found it. It was horrible tasting and embarrassing to carry around. Reader's Note: Usually wine has a name, like the grapes used to make it, or the name on the label. I used to live in Switzerland and it tasted the same as the new wine they harvest in the fall that is so unpalatable they almost give it away for free to impoverished students. Speed dating works like this: The women sat at individual tables and the men sat across. Five or so minutes of conversation and then the host appeared holding a small gong. It was like swiping left in real time. Coupled with the fact that some men had thick accents, it was a sincere effort in every way. Each person was given a little card which they filled in with their personal info and then were supposed to list the people we met with three further options beside each name: Now, take a moment to do the math. Being shy or coy doesn't work in this statistical environment and that is a good thing. Most of the men I met were lovely; in that they were gainfully employed, highly intelligent and average-looking. They were the men you see walking down the street in the banking district, with a diverse mix of ethnicities. When meeting strangers it is always important to dress to your particular strengths and to be in a good mood with an openness to move with the flow of the conversation. That is not a question you would ask people in a normal environment! So, he's still single, ladies. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and I would do it again. However, it is my sincere belief that some of the people - especially two of the women, and one of the men - were ringers. They were the people the host was taking pictures of, they were the ones speaking among themselves and generally not behaving in a nervous manner. They were taller, thinner, bigger-breasted and better dressed than anyone in the room by a long shot. If I had to guess, they were likely models. I think they were on hand to fill in the spaces when others did not show up. When they event was over, they were first in line to get their coats and they stopped and waited for each other outside the venue. In short, they were walking and talking about where they lived as colleagues do after a work shift, not the nervous banter of singles looking to create a match. My results came back and I was a mutual match with one man. He has already emailed me for drinks or dinner. However, very few females are as forthcoming as me online, or follow The Rules, so that added element of introduction and fun no-pressure meeting is a handy and worthwhile use of your time. The man I was matched with lived and worked upwards of 30 kms from the location where we met. It's logical to assume that if he made the trek once, he could make it again, but not so... I was open to returning to the scene of the crime, but he wanted a complicated arrangement where I waited 3. Needless to say, when I politely brought this to his attention, he did not want to meet anymore.

Yes, attractive women may well be able to walk into bars and be chatted up, but very few normal women think like that. A 2006 study in showed that 45% of the women participants in a speed-dating event and 22% of the men had come to a decision within the first 30 seconds. But the absurd cast of characters she encounters makes her wonder if being single is not so bad after all. Five or so minutes of conversation and then the host appeared holding a small gong.
